DF has always referred to the energy stored in Power Items as FP. It's ultimately just semantics - it's energy that can be used in place of FP/ER for casting spells.
Also, just went through the book. It's got some pretty good stuff, particularly all the historical information on coinage. The bit on fasteners was interesting as well, and of course Doublehard Glass is a welcome addition. In fact, more artifacts from the Translucent City would be interesting, such as armor-grade Tempered Glass (and of course the Doublehard treatment could result in something akin to Hardened Steel or Duplex Plate).
One minor thing I'll note - organic currencies aren't quite as implausible as the book indicates. From what I've read in the past, cacao beans were used as currency in the Aztec and Mayan empires.
